Mental illness was the result of a super ego or a moral code that was too unrealistic for the patients ability to cope with the resulting conflict. The orthodox procedure in psychoanalysis is free association and dream analysis. The patient relaxes on a couch and is encouraged to talk about whatever enters his mind, and, also, to talk about his dreams. . . . Through reduction of guilt (feelings) and by developing an ability to redirect or sublimate his re- the patient was to conquer his mental Sressed desire, (Ibid. p. 6) After a full generation of acceptance of Freuds basic theory, a few psychologists finally took the time to evaluate psychoanalysis. They found that Freuds elaborate and expensive technique produced no more cures than the spontaneous recovery rate of those who had no such treatment. These studies included those of Knight in 1941, Wilder in 1945, Evsenck in 1952 followed by another study by Eysenck in 1962. As Dr. Hobart Mowerer has stated, . . . psychoanalytical therapy, despite the great amount of time and expense involved, is not demonstratively effective; and its impact upon various social institutions home, church, school, and courts seems often to have been not helpful, but disintegrative.
